Irish international James McClean has revealed the reason he has the number '14' embedded on his new boots. The design is a tribute to the victims of Bloody Sunday.

The winger posted the new boots on his social media. A tricolour also features on the boot. It comes as this Wednesday, January 30, will mark the 47th anniversary of the mass shooting in the Bogside, Derry.
